Kimkins

Kimkins, or the Kimkins diet has been shown up to be just another scam on the unsuspecting.Heidi "Kimmer" Diaz, the founder of the Kimkin's diet - a low carb, low
calorie diet - is schedule to appear in a Southern California court on
Monday, November 12th, 2007. 11 former users of her Kimkins diet
program filed a complaint against her one week ago, claiming fraud,
false advertising, and unjust enrichment. The Kimkin's scandal began when Woman's World, a popular women's magazine featured an article on the Kimkin's diet.

Ms Diaz, who was claiming to have lost
198 pounds in 11 months using her diet plan, refused to meet with the
magazine in person, instead corresponding through email. She went so
far as to send the magazine before and after pictures that looked
nothing alike, which makes sense when people found out that the before
pictures were Ms. Diaz, however the after pictures were taken from a
Russian 'mail-order' bride web site.

The kimkins diet advised eating just 500 calories a day. That less than concentration camp victims were getting:

It gets better, footage from her deposition was aired on KTLA recently where she admits it as well as it clearly shows how obese she is. Oh and they flash her paypal statement on the screen showing she received 1.2 million in one month alone after her diet was featured in womans world magazine, thats not including checks, direct deposits etc

There is a link to it here just under her lovely picture :) http://pinchof.blogspot.com/2007/11/kimkins-diet-scam.html

I was in the hospital for intestinal obstruction because my digestive system quit working after being on this diet for a few months. I am dependent on laxatives now and very much regret having EVER done this diet. I logged on the site and posted a warning just to let people know they need to be careful. I then got an email from "KIMMER" saying that she 'HEARD' that I was unhappy with Kimkins and to provide my MAILING address and I would be sent a refund check. Immediately after that I tried logging into the site and my IP was blocked. I tried from a different IP address and was able to actually bring up the site but not suprising, my ACCOUNT HAS BEEN DEACTIVATED. How can that be since I have yet to request or receive a refund? Does anyone else find this interesting???
